Holiday rentals in Veneto
Veneto is home to some of Italy’s most beautiful treasures, though many visitors miss them in their haste to reach their apartment in Venice. Verona is beautiful and historic – the setting of Romeo and Juliet; Vicenza was the home of Andrea Palladio, possibly the most influential architect in Western history. A holiday villa in Veneto offers you the chance to foray into these fascinating cities and to explore the region’s lovely and blissfully uncrowded smaller towns. Soave has an enchanting castle and is home to the much-loved wine. Cortina d’Ampezzo houses a world-class ski resort. And in Padua, art lovers can marvel at Giotto’s groundbreaking fresco cycle. Staying at a holiday villa in Veneto needn’t only involve sightseeing, however. In exquisite Lake Garda you’ll find pristine waters and fragrant lemon groves beneath the snow-capped Alps, and in the sub-alpine Bassano del Grappa, you can savour gourmet white asparagus. Veneto hugs the Adriatic Sea and is bordered on the north by the Dolomites.

More about your Veneto holiday...
The Riviera del Brenta runs between Venice and Padua and was an area favoured by the 17th century elite. Why not emulate them with a holiday villa in Veneto? Now known as the Venetian Villas, these luxurious summer residences were built along the Brenta River during Renaissance times. Marostica also basks in Renaissance flavour: a life-sized chess game takes place in this little town, and its living ‘chess pieces’ make their moves across the board dressed in Renaissance costume. Relax in the thermal waters of Abano, or settle in the beautiful valley of Valpolicella, where after spending a day visiting family-owned wineries, you can retire to your holiday villa in Veneto. And of course, what holiday in Italy would be complete without a trip to Venice? The faded grandeur of this elegant and ancient city has captivated visitors for centuries. St Mark’s Basilica, the Grand Canal, the island of Murano: hire an apartment in Venice or holiday villa in Veneto and soak up the glory of these treasures.
